Chapter 5259: Strange
Editor: Henyee Translations
Madam Li’s temper had always been fiery. Her family members were the same. Staff Officer Du used to think that there was nothing wrong with it and thought that with a strong woman at home, she would take care of the family and not let him worry.
That was the truth. Ever since he married Madam Li, the Du family started to wash the mud off their legs bit by bit. They walked step by step from the field to the road and then to the prosperous city. In the end, they got to where they were today.
However, after Li Chuhai came back from overseas and committed a series of things, Staff Officer Du was almost dragged down. Madam Li still did whatever she wanted and did not realize that the Li family was on the verge of collapse. She even asked Staff Officer Du to get involved in Li Chuhai’s matter and tried to save Li Chuhai through him.
This concerned his future. Moreover, Li Chuhai’s crime was related to the country. No matter how much Staff Officer Du respected his wife, he couldn’t do anything.
If he made a move, he would be going against the country.
Opposing the country?
Was she tired of living?!
Staff Officer Du didn’t do anything in the end, and Madam Li kicked up a fuss. Hence, the couple’s phone call this time was filled with tension.
Madam Li didn’t say anything else. After she finished speaking, she ended the call and turned her phone to silent mode. No matter how thick her makeup was in recent years, it couldn’t hide the gloomy facial expression on her old face.
Commanding her to go home immediately?
He was a leader in the military unit, but was she his soldier?
If anything happened, he should come to the hospital himself!
But he would never do that.
"Chenglan..." Second Old Madam Li’s tired voice came from the ward. Madam Li had walked out of the ward to answer the call. She pushed the door open and entered. "Mom, why are you awake? Sleep for a while more. It’s still early."
The ward was a one-bedroom high-class ward. Only people at Old Master Li’s level could receive such treatment.
Two days ago, Old Master Li had a stroke. Second Old Madam Li insisted on staying in the hospital to take care of him. Madam Li had no choice but to stay in the hospital with them. Fortunately, she didn’t need to do anything. There were nurses and caretakers. She just needed to keep an eye on them.
Even so, Madam Li, who had been at the hospital for two days, couldn’t eat properly.
She was already in her early 60s. How could she endure it?
However, she had no choice. Second Old Madam Li insisted on staying in the hospital, and Old Master Li was still lying in the ICU. He only woke up once. As his daughter, she had to accompany him.
She came over and placed the pillow properly. Then, she helped Second Old Madam Li to sit up and lean against the pillow. The mother and daughter looked tired.
Second Old Madam Li, who was sitting up in bed, drank a glass of water. Her expression was dark as she said to Madam Li, "Call Ronghuan and ask him about Jun’s current situation. Also, tell him that he can either give those hooligans a death sentence or make them stay in prison for the rest of their lives.
"Jun is our only child. If something happens to him, how am I going to answer to the old master? Chenglan, you have to keep an eye on him. You have to keep an eye on me. As for Ronghuan..."
When Second Old Madam Li mentioned Li Ronghuan, there was a hint of gloominess in her muddy eyes. "The old master trusts him, but I don’t."
Second Old Madam Li, who had forced the first wife to her death, would never believe the child left behind by the first wife. Li Ronghuan’s return was too coincidental. He did not seem estranged from her at all. The more this was the case, the more uncertain Second Old Madam Li was.
She didn’t trust him, and neither did Madam Li.
Hearing this, Madam Li nodded. "I know it even if you don’t say it. We only have Jun now. Nothing can happen to him."
